In his fourth year at Burberry—a period often considered the “sweet spot” for cementing a creative vision—creative director Daniel Lee unveiled his highly anticipated Winter 2026 collection. As the final show of London Fashion Week, he closed it out on a very high note—hit after hit, as some might say.
The show unfolded at Old Billingsgate, a landmark on the north bank of the River Thames. The set mirrored London’s architecture and street life, creating an alluring after-dark mood. A replica of Tower Bridge rose against scaffolding wrapped in the iconic Burberry check, while resin “puddles” mimicked wet, rainy pavements. Deep blue lighting and black velvet seating heightened the elegant evening mood. This energy carried through to the 56-look collection, which captured not just the act of going out but the feeling of it—the pulse of the streets and the individuality of those who move through them. “Everyone’s going somewhere,” Lee said of the season’s characters in the press release. “Everyone’s going out.”
Channeling the spirit, Lee doubled down on house signatures, working them with modernity. Ruffled-collar trench coats, worn belted and as dresses, were styled with Mary Jane heels and sheer tights. Shearling outerwear with raw-cut edges draped effortlessly over silk dresses or leather pants, evoking the inherent ease of London style—thrown on without overthinking before stepping into the night. Sleeker, occasion-ready pieces shimmered with fringe, beads, sequins, and embroidered tassels. A moody palette of rich, deep jewel tones added depth and polish, underscoring the sophistication of London nightlife. Ahead, read our full breakdown of Burberry’s latest collection.
A Star-Studded Attendance
If there’s one thing about a Burberry show during London Fashion Week, it’s that it’s going to bring a wealth of A-list celebrities. This season, the front row included Kate Moss, who wore a black minidress under a black double-breasted coat; her daughter, Lila Moss, in a tweed long-sleeve dress and snakeskin heels; and Grammy Award-winning singer Olivia Dean, who wore a crewneck sweater, an asymmetrical hem skirt, and a fringe bag.
